HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 633, 910, 869 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 633, 910, 869 is 1 the largest number which exactly divides all the numbers i.e. where the remainder is zero. Let us get into the working of this example.
Consider we have numbers 633, 910, 869 and we need to find the HCF of these numbers. To do so, we need to choose the largest integer first and then as per Euclid's Division Lemma a = bq + r where 0 ≤ r ≤ b
Highest common factor (HCF) of 633, 910, 869 is 1.
HCF(633, 910, 869) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 633, 910, 869 is 1.
Step 1: Since 910 > 633, we apply the division lemma to 910 and 633, to get
910 = 633 x 1 + 277
Step 2: Since the reminder 633 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 277 and 633, to get
633 = 277 x 2 + 79
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 277 and the new remainder 79, and apply the division lemma to get
277 = 79 x 3 + 40
We consider the new divisor 79 and the new remainder 40,and apply the division lemma to get
79 = 40 x 1 + 39
We consider the new divisor 40 and the new remainder 39,and apply the division lemma to get
40 = 39 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 39 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
39 = 1 x 39 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 633 and 910 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(39,1) = HCF(40,39) = HCF(79,40) = HCF(277,79) = HCF(633,277) = HCF(910,633) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 869 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 869 and 1, to get
869 = 1 x 869 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 869 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(869,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
